Detail
Problem Description: An updated RealPlayer package that fixes a format string bug is now available. This update has been rated as having critical security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS version 3 Extras - i386, x86_64 Red Hat Desktop version 3 Extras - i386, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES version 3 Extras - i386, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS version 3 Extras - i386, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS version 4 Extras - i386, x86_64 Red Hat Desktop version 4 Extras - i386, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES version 4 Extras - i386, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS version 4 Extras - i386, x86_64 3. Problem description: RealPlayer is a media player that provides media playback locally and via streaming. A format string bug was discovered in the way RealPlayer processes RealPix (.rp) files. It is possible for a malformed RealPix file to execute arbitrary code as the user running RealPlayer. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2005-2710 to this issue. All users of RealPlayer are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which contains RealPlayer version 10.0.6 and is not vulnerable to this issue. 4. Solution: Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata relevant to your system have been applied. To update all RPMs for your particular architecture, run: rpm -Fvh [filenames] where [filenames] is a list of the RPMs you wish to upgrade. Only those RPMs which are currently installed will be updated. Those RPMs which are not installed but included in the list will not be updated. Note that you can also use wildcards (*.rpm) if your current directory *only* contains the desired RPMs. Please note that this update is also available via Red Hat Network. Many people find this an easier way to apply updates. To use Red Hat Network, launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command: up2date This will start an interactive process that will result in the appropriate RPMs being upgraded on your system. 5.

The issue is triggered when <CONDITION> occurs. It is possible that the flaw may allow <IMPACT> resulting in a loss of <confidentiality, integrity, and/or availability>. c0ntex has discovered a vulnerability in Helix Player, which potentially can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system. The vulnerability is caused due to a format string error when displaying the invalid-handle error message. This may be exploited to execute arbitrary code via a specially crafted ".rp" file. The ".rt" file format may also be affected. Successful exploitation requires that the user is e.g. tricking into opening or following a link to a malicious ".rp" file. The vulnerability has been confirmed in Helix Player 1.0.5.757 (gold), and affects only the Linux/Unix platforms. Other versions may also be affected. |
